CUI recommends a PCB layout with a solid ground plane and thermal vias to dissipate heat. A minimum of 2 oz copper thickness is recommended. Additionally, ensure good airflow around the module and consider adding a heat sink if operating in high-temperature environments.
To ensure EMC, follow proper PCB design and layout guidelines, use a metal enclosure, and consider adding EMI filters or shielding to the input and output lines. Additionally, ensure that the module is installed in a way that minimizes radiation and conducted emissions.
CUI provides a derating curve in the datasheet, but for more detailed information, contact CUI's technical support. They can provide a customized derating curve based on your specific application and operating conditions.
Yes, the PBO-15C-12 can be used in redundant or parallel configurations, but it's essential to follow CUI's guidelines and recommendations for proper implementation. This may include using external ORing diodes, current sharing, and synchronization circuits.
CUI provides an MTBF rating of >1 million hours at 25°C, calculated according to MIL-HDBK-217F. However, this rating may vary depending on the specific application, operating conditions, and environmental factors.
